I subscribe to the daily sales quotes from Just Sell. Earlier this week they sent out this timely quote on luck. It got me thinking about how people create their own luck. As a St. Patrick’s Day wish, I want to include 10 Ways to Create Your Own Luck.
10 Ways to Create Your Own Luck
(Plus Sales Team Meeting Idea)
Happy St. Patrick’s Day from Meeting to Win

Sales Team Meeting Idea:
As a team:
- Share times in your professional life when you “got lucky”.
- What led up to that luck?
- Create a list of how salespeople can create their own luck. You can start with the list above and add to it.
- At the end of the meeting, each salesperson should commit to one thing from the list they are currently NOT doing and will START doing.
